Outdoor fun

Hey! How are you all doing?
Last week I managed to achieve one of my 2016 goals: rollerblading a full lap around Ibirapuera Park. I was so happy! I learned to rollerblade when I was little but never practiced frequently, so tackling the downhill slopes of the track was a challenge. I love rollerblading and decided I was going to overcome that fear, and it worked :)
After getting super excited about this small achievement, I decided to make a post with ideas for enjoying a day outdoors. I think nature is so beautiful, and we often forget to appreciate it. If you have a square, a park, a club, or a tree-lined street nearby, be sure to do something to enjoy it.

Ideas for enjoying the outdoors alone or with company:

WALK WITH MUSIC

Prepare a playlist with your favorite songs and go for a walk alone. Besides being a way to move your body, walking allows us to appreciate the details of what's around us. I love it!

RIDE A BIKE

For those who are brave enough, cycling is one of the most fun activities. These days I arranged with a friend to cycle in the park in the morning, and since we had no commitments that day, we invented other activities: from the park we went to the museum, then we decided to look for a different place for lunch, and along the way we passed a street with super cute wall paintings!
All this by bike. It was really cool, plus we got a great leg workout!

 

HAVE A PICNIC

Having a picnic is so easy and so joyful! If you've already walked and cycled, you can certainly eat something delicious, right? :P
Prepare a recipe you love, invite friends, spread out a blanket to lie on the grass, and enjoy a blue sky all afternoon. I've had picnics a few times here in São Paulo, and I confess I'd like to do it more often.
Speaking of which, I found this GORGEOUS popcorn box freebie on Blog do Math. If you bring this to your picnic, it will definitely be a hit.
 
I hope these tips inspire you to enjoy a day outdoors.
A kiss!
